Cleave Attack Move
With the Polearms Skill learned and a Polearm type Weapon equipped, pilgrims can use the Cleave Combat Move. Cleave is an Impact Attack with AOE damage making it easier to connect. Additionally unlike most Combat Moves Cleave's damage is based on Maximum Yellow Bile rather than current Yellow Bile meaning it does not get weaker the more times you use it without restoring your Humours. Using Cleave consumes Yellow Bile and does Blood damage based on your Maximum Yellow Bile, the Purity of your Polearm, and your combined Impact Power and Common Combat Power Artifact Bonus. Cleave will give you a small amount of Imbalance. Impact Defense and Common Combat Defense Artifacts will reduce the damage you take from the Cleave Attack.
Weapon Purity
Craftable metal Weapons such as Halberds and Spanish Sabres initially take their Purity from the Wrought Iron Bars used in their construction but the Purity of all Polearms and Sword can be modified by selecting a Whetstone and right-clicking it on the Weapon and selecting "Sharpen". This will consume the Whetstone and transfer its Purity onto the Weapon. Purity increases the amount of damage done by the Weapon by up to 10% at 100% Purity.
